/**
 * <p>A base class for converters that transform a normal configuration
 * object into a hierarchical configuration.</p>
 * <p>This class provides a default mechanism for iterating over the keys in a
 * configuration and to throw corresponding element start and end events. By
 * handling these events a hierarchy can be constructed that is equivalent to
 * the keys in the original configuration.</p>
 * <p>Concrete sub classes will implement event handlers that generate SAX
 * events for XML processing or construct a
 * {@code HierarchicalConfiguration} root node. All in all with this class
 * it is possible to treat a default configuration as if it was a hierarchical
 * configuration, which can be sometimes useful.</p>
